Description from the seller

There are different editions of Bert Stern's "Last Sitting".
This is the extended edition of "The Last Sitting" with the title
"THE COMPLETE LAST SITTING"
The book is in German with a foreword by Bert Stern.
It has 464 pages with 2571 images, 375 of them in color.
Condition: like new with dust jacket and slipcase
ISBN 3-88814-196-6 weight over 4 kilos

In no other book do you get so close to Marilyn; one can feel the approaching end, for Bert Stern photographed this series only a few days before her death, and Marilyn appears exhausted and is no longer truly part of this world. The viewer sees all contact sheets from the "Last Sitting" and selected enlargements in black-and-white or color. Noteworthy are the destructions Marilyn left on the contact prints. Some have been crossed out with red pen, others were destroyed with a knife. This alone has made these images visual classics.
